Services for Seniors

Services for Seniors

Seniors that are home-bound or need supplemental care are a critical part of our client base. As they age, or if returning home from the hospital post-injury or procedure, seniors are sometimes less able to perform Activities of Daily Living, often referred to as ADLs.

ADLs are activities normally done during a typical day, such as meal preparation, eating, bathing, dressing, grooming, work, homemaking, and leisure activities. Certain types of devices may be used to improve independence in performing ADLs in the elderly and various patients, but when these aren’t enough, home care is often used to provide supplementary assistance.

Basic ADL’s are as the following:

Bathing/showering

Personal hygiene and grooming (brushing teeth/combing/styling hair

Dressing

Toilet hygiene (getting to the toilet, cleaning oneself, and getting back up)

Walking, getting in and out of bed or a seated position.

Self-feeding

One way to think about basic ADLs is that they are the things many people do when they get up in the morning and get ready to go out of the house: get out of bed, go to the toilet, bathe, dress, groom, and eat. If you or a loved one can no longer perform 2 or more of these basic activities without assistance, then it would be a good time to bring in home care services to help.

Instrumental ADL’s are as the following:

Cleaning and maintaining the house

Managing money

Moving within the community

Preparing meals

Shopping for groceries and necessities

Taking prescribed medications

Using the telephone or other form of communication

If you or a loved one can no longer cook, shop for groceries, clean the house, or perform other instrumental without assistance, then A-Supreme can provide the services to help read more here.
